Corgi 1:76th scale diecast Bus – Guy- Utility Autobus Burton Corporation 6 Calais 1960 – 43917

From 1903, the Burton Corporation Municipal Transport System was only used on the road system, but in January 1924 it was decided to build up two B-B motorbuses with Guy B20F. In 1930, the roadway was completely replaced by bus, and in 1943 Burton had its first double layers, two Utility Guy Arabs with the Weymann H56R bodywork, built to war specifications that included wooden wheel seats. In 1944 additional deliveries included – Burton Corporation No. among others. 34, a Guy Arab II 5LW, registration FA 7978, equipped with a royal park. The double tire vehicles proved to be uncovered vehicles that are heavily filled but the war buses are made of inferior wood and have been susceptible to a deterioration in driving. Some have been innovated by the company itself and others were Merthyr Tydfil Bodybuilder D. J. Davies, including the FA 7978, which was rebuilt in 1951.
